Meet Your Village Doula
Hi! I'm Danielle Fradley-Davis (she/her),
I am a certified Doula, Child Birth Educator and the proud owner and founder of Your Village Birth Services.
I was drawn to doula work because I believe the experiences and well-being of those growing their families matter. I recognize the opportunity that birth provides for personal growth and deepened connections and I know firsthand that the care we receive during these vulnerable moments can have a lasting impact. I see the value that trusted, calm, and continuous support brings to the reproductive experience.
With a love of building connections, a passion for learning and sharing knowledge, and a drive to protect and improve the birth experience for all, I dove into the world of Doula work and never looked back.
As your Doula, I arrive with warmth, humility, and humour. As a proudly Queer, neuro-"spicy", person of colour, I am conscious of the various systems of oppression that affect us all differently. I honour what makes your family unique and am committed to anchoring my care advocacy and trauma reduction. I work with you to build on your strengths and fill in the gaps of care. I meet your family where you are, free of judgement and ready to support your goals. I feel privileged to walk with you through all the highs and lows of welcoming a new life.
Outside of supporting families, I love mindfully parenting my two wonderful kids, nurturing my friendships, and finding peace and grounding through nature and creativity. I love exploring outdoors, watering my garden, attending folk music festivals, creating in the kitchen, singing, throwing pottery, and just about any other creative outlet I can get my hands on.
My doula certifications have been completed through Doula School Canada, with further studies in lactation support.
Some of the studies and qualifications that I have collected along my journey prior to Doula work include, studies in Women and Gender( Laurier University 2012), Culinary Management (Conestoga Collage 2014) , Local Food Sustainability (St. Lawrence College 2016), and Holistic Nutrition (CNP, Institute of Holistic Nutrition 2018). This collection of knowledge and experiences very much inform and support my approach to Doula work.
I welcome you to reach out and look forward to getting to know you and how I may best serve your growing family.
-Danielle
